So my friend is getting into gaming, and he loves HL2/BF2. Here is a setup I picked out for him, I am going to help him OC it.
Note that he already has the following:
Case
HD
Video Card (9600XT)
CD/DVD Drive
Now here is what I picked out for him, he wanted it to be under $300.
AMD Sempron 3000+ 754. I was hoping to OC these to get it to 3400+ speeds.
Aspire ATX 520W PSU <-- Nice, solid PSU
MSI K8N Neo-V 754 ATX Motherboard <-- My friend has one, great OC options, very stable.
Corsair ValueSelect PC3200 2x512MB RAM <-- Good value, good ram.
Total comes to $274.60. What do you think? Would that do some HL2/BF2 gaming? I didn't say on the highest settings ever, just enough to get a little eye candy at a good reso.
